I had the same problem once, and after many tries I discovered that my SMS was an old version. You should ask IBM for the lastest version of SMS.

Which RS/6K do you have?

I had to shutdown -h the system to move it from one location to another. When I powered back on, I was greeted with a "Client program not recognized" error.

I have SuSE 7.1 PPC installed.

Gruss Olaf correctly responded:

Did a normal reboot work? Maybe your battery is old and cant hold the nvram data. Change the boot device in the "Multiboot" menu.

I have booted into the Maintenance menu using the CD and changed the bootlist from the default (floppy, CD, net card), to floppy, HD, CD and rebooted. This appears to have no effect.

According to IBM, I should boot from the first AIX disk and invoke the bootlist command. I don't have AIX, I have SuSE 7.1 PPC, which makes me null and void in the eyes of IBM.

Is there an equivalent SuSE command or process? Thanks.
